Essay from the year 2018 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies – Literature, grade: A, , language: English, abstract: This essay deals with the personal and public identity in Virginia Woolf’s novel ‘Mrs. Dalloway’.
The concept of identity is one that can be given many interpretations and meanings according to relevant components and aspects taken into consideration. In this frame a severance between personal and social identity can be made, referring both to the individual’s self but also the individual’s social identity related to social conduct and aiming toward an accepted and well projected social self.
Clarissa Dalloway serves as a very clear example of that struggle between personal and public identity and especially regarding women of the Victorian time, who by oppressing their true self, aspirations, feelings and wits were allowed to fit in the stereotypical role that society assigned to women.
